I've stored wine at this location for 10 years. Cathy & Carelena are always exceptionally accommodating, always kind, and keep the place spotless. I've never seen clutter in the un/loading bays nor anywhere in or around the facility. Prices increased under new ownership but what I came to realize through researching the local market is everyone's prices increased over the past few years. I'll be using this location's services as long as I need off-site storage!

Response from Life Storage (3/20/2024)

We appreciate your loyalty and kind words, Brent. Thank you for recognizing our team's hard work in maintaining a clean and organized facility. If you have any concerns about pricing, please feel free to reach out to us at (847) 234-0505.

Mostly excellent - friendly staff and someone is always available to speak to by phone or in person during office hours, clean and safe premises. I was disappointed by the significant increase in unit rent after about 4 months.

We regret that this change did not meet your expectations. We are more than happy to look into your rate increase with you to see how we can assist. Please give us a call at 888-storage.

Storage facility is very clean and easy to access. Indoor loading area is a huge bonus. I found this location online and went in person to see the unit before I rented. The promotional price changes after a few months so I prepaid a year to lock the price in. After one year the price doubles to market rate, which is motivating me to deal with the contents within a deadline. Note that there is an additional admin fee and you have to buy a lock from them, both reasonably priced. Cathy and Carelena are professional and personable. Thank you both for assisting me in renting a unit and making sure everything was going well.

Response from Life Storage (3/2/2024)

Hi Mariah, thanks so much for your review! We are thrilled to hear your experience was positive and are always here to help with your storage needs! Give us a call at (847) 234-0505 or stop by the office if you need anything!
